NEFfECTUAL EFFORTS OF OUR GOVERNMENT TO
SAVE THE CONDEMNED MEXICAN OFFICERS.
The two Mexican officers who were concerned in
the NoSales outrage last spring, and were SEN
fenced TO be shot by judgment OF a special court
martial have been confined In jail since then,
pen4ing an appeal for a mitigation Of punish
ment, which was strongly endorsed by the state
Department OF the United States Government
The punishment was deemed too severe, and a
long correspondence has taken place between the
two governments In regard to 1t. The two OIL
GERS are Col. Francisco Arvigu and Lieut. Cutter
rez. II now appears that the appeals for mercy
were 1neffectuai. and that the sentence OF the
court-martial will, after all, be carried out. The
day, has not yet been set, but an order in the
premises Is expected from the war department In
the city OF Mexico at any hour.
